I own a property which is let under a protected tenancy and which is exempt from the requirement to have a fitness inspection. How can I get the rent increased?
A – if the property is exempt, the landlord can apply directly to the Rent Officer to have a new rent determined under the PTO. The form can be downloaded from the ‘Apply to the Rent Officer’ section of this website. Information on the reason why the property is exempt from the requirement to have a fitness inspection is required and the Rent Officer will verify this information with the district council or the Housing Executive as the case may be.
